Subject: [patch 011/198] Fix get_compat_sigevent()
Date: Tue, 12 Apr 2005 03:30:42 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200504121030.j3CAUmxl005155@shell0.pdx.osdl.net> (raw)
From: "David S. Miller" <davem@davemloft.net>
I have no idea how a bug like this lasted so long. Anyways, obvious
memset()'ing of incorrect pointer.
